<p>The concept of using a raincoat so rarely that you end up outgrowing it and not buying a new one is a foreign concept to me. It does rain at UA, so a new coat will be necessary if your S decides to attend. Wal-Mart sells some UA ponchos for less than the vendors, so you could go there. The Tuscaloosa Wal-Mart has a huge UA section should you want a souvenir.</p>
<p>As for tour stops, stop by Nott Hall on the quad. It’s the home of the honors college and your S will have classes there.</p>
